NetEase Games has unveiled the patch notes for Marvel Rivals version 20250327, set to roll out ahead of Season 2’s debut in mid-April. This eagerly anticipated update, scheduled for release on Thursday, March 27, 2025, at 9am (UTC+0), promises a host of hero enhancements and map refinements without any server downtime, ensuring uninterrupted gameplay for fans eager to dive into the action.
A standout feature of this update is the inclusion of a special April Fool's Easter egg gift as part of the Galacta’s Cosmic Quest board game event. This hidden twist surprise will be available exclusively to players who have completed the event, adding an exciting layer of mystery and reward to the game. NetEase has teased that this surprise can be claimed from April 1 to April 4, 2025, heightening anticipation among the community.
In addition to the Easter egg, the update aims to enhance gameplay by reducing instances of characters clipping through maps. Although specific maps weren't mentioned, a fix for a glitch on the Hydra Charteris Base map ensures that teammates will no longer be revived outside the play area.
As Marvel Rivals wraps up Season 1 and gears up for Season 2, this update brings significant fixes to hero-related glitches. Heroes such as Wolverine, Iron Fist, Iron Man, Loki, Doctor Strange, Magneto, and Human Torch are receiving targeted ability adjustments. Wolverine, in particular, sees substantial improvements to his Feral Leap and Ultimate abilities, ensuring more consistent performance.
Looking ahead, Marvel Rivals Season 2 is slated for April 11, 2025. Speculation abounds about new heroes, with many fans anticipating a focus on Marvel’s Hellfire Gala event. This could introduce characters like Blade and Emma Frost, fulfilling NetEase's commitment to add at least one new hero every half-season.

Fixes
All Platforms
General
Resolved an issue in Custom Game where a disconnected player's character would still appear on the Like page during match settlement.
Maps and Modes
Fixed several terrain issues that could cause characters to sometimes become stuck or clip into strange areas.
Squashed a glitch in the Hydra Charteris Base map where Rocket Raccoon's B.R.B. could sometimes revive teammates outside the play area due to terrain changes.
Heroes
Wolverine's Terrifying Pounce: Resolved an issue where the Hulk could sometimes have abnormal behavior after being catapulted into a terrain KO by Wolverine's Feral Leap. Now, the big guy gets the proper beatdown without any off-script environmental stunts!
Iron Fist's Wall-Climbing Whimsy: Fixed a glitch in Practice Range where Iron Fist wall-climbing was beyond expectations. The master of martial arts can now keep his acrobatic feats on track!
Iron Man's Teleportation Tangle: In Sanctum Sanctorum, Iron Man use of Hyper-Velocity followed immediately by portal entry could occasionally throw a wrench in the works—resulting in the ability to misfire and some off-color special effects. Now, Iron Man's high-tech strategy is as sleek as ever, letting him jet in and out as he pleases.
Loki-Doctor Strange's Forbidden Tech: Fixed an issue in Doom Match where Loki's transformation into Doctor Strange allowed the use of the forbidden Pentagram of Farallah. This minds-warping mix-up has been vanquished.
Magneto's Magnetic Moments: Resolved an issue in the post-match where Magneto's MVP could sometimes display some bizarre, offbeat visuals. The master of magnetism now commands his moments with true polar precision.
Wolverine's Ultimate with Pinpoint Precision: Fixed a snag in Wolverine's Ultimate Ability where, under high network latency, foes sent flying and slammed into the ground could sometimes end up in the wrong location. Now, every Last Stand lands exactly where it should.
Human Torch's Fiery Focus: Addressed a rare bug where the Human Torch's Primary Attack would sometimes miss its target entirely, leaving his incendiary prowess a little less scorching. With this fix, every burst of flame burns as brilliantly as intended—ensuring his heat is always on target!
Console
Eliminated a bug that sometimes caused the focus to unpredictably shift to earlier messages when opening the chat window.
